I just don’t like the premise of a market where one has to sell their artistic labor in order to survive, or thrive. I’m on board with noncommercial licenses and everything because the reality looks different, but that was not my point. And neither was it the point of the original comment you replied to.

The problem with copyright/data ownership is that it’s useless if you’re unable to enforce it. Data is replicable, doesn’t matter if you call it “work” or “ideas”. Do you think you own the text you just wrote? Let me show you something.

There. I just stole your text. I stole it. I own it now. It’s mine now. What are you gonna do about it?

Instead there is no stealing when it comes to information, there’s only replication, there’s only copying.

I agree with you, corpos shouldn’t have this amount of power. But you won’t get there by trying to protect the work of artists writers etc with the exact same scheme corpos pulled to protect their power and interests. Like, it didn’t work, did it? No copyright for me, thanks

If it’s really just pictures and contacts, do it manually. Contacts app should have an export function. Pictures you can just copy via USB.

Messages are usually cloud-stored nowadays right? Do you have more than idk 5 different messaging apps? If you don’t, and one or some of them for some reason don’t store messages on some server, find out if you can do it manually, most apps should have export/import functionality (not just messaging apps btw). For standard SMS though, no idea.

Oh it’s been a year already?!? Time flies when you have a good time I guess. Thank you!

I edited my comment I forgot the conclusion as always lol you might wanna check it again

AI is a tool that’s used as a disinfo machine primarily, at least LLMs are in praxis, and they get better much faster at that in particular with such amounts of data. But I would argue that this kind of data (acquired without user consent) isn’t necessary for them to get better edit: at anything else that’s actually useful.

I would be much more okay with corpos or states invading my privacy if anything actually useful would come of it, but it kinda doesn’t. I left corpo social media behind not because it was hungry for what data I could provide it, but because it used mine and others user data to make itself worse. And the desire to drop my smartphone and go full dumb tech or no tech at all grows with every passing day. But the paranoia every privacy-concious person experiences sooner or later, some more intense than others, was not something initial for me.

edit: … as was privacy-burnout. I always keep that in mind, I try ro remember, that the reason privacy bothers me is not (only) to protect myself. It’s not a futile fight for independence of anything, it’s tied to a vision I have of the world.and the future

Hope this makes sense I have the feeling what I write often doesn’t

I mostly use them for really simple things like hovering the cursor over something to show a tooltip, or navigating menus in DRG and the inventory in Minecraft.

I realized how much I miss this hybrid approach when I had my 3 month long Genshin Impact phase. Genshin does support either Keyboard and Mouse or controller input, but not both at thw same time, and the menus suffer from mildly inconsistent UI and UX.

I think if you cut the player base roughly in half, the players that care for multiplayer titles which don’t work on Linux (yet) are also the ones not caring as much about touchpads; while the other half are a different kind of gamer who appreciates or even needs them.

it only works with chrome

You’re correct, thanks for pointing out.

There’s this article in a German IT sec blog which compares the more well-known privacy focused ROMs. If you have any way to translate it, you should check it out. It is a really nice addition to the Eylenburg comparison.

i want customization to my os as long as this is possible

I was rocking Ressurection Remix and Xposed on my old Note 4 and customized the hell out of it. I’m on Graphene now and I don’t miss it a bit. Maybe a little.

Graphene can be installed on your phone via a web browser on a PC on laptop. You should install it and try it out, it’s very easy.

No need to burn it down it’s gonna crumble on its own.

This may be feasible for WQHD, but upscaling from 960x540 > 1920x1080 doesn’t really sound like an upgrade from WXGA anymore.

Another problem is that while there are some 3D games that support internal upscaling (FSR etc), not every game has the option to scale the UI indepently so things look extremely small at higher resolutions. The games that support both should be an exception and look better on a higher DPI screen.

I do believe that you could either slightly increase the resolution and screensize to 1600x1000 or 1600x900, or just use a WQHD-screen so you can get clean 2x upscaling from 720p.

1280x800 is 16:10, a standard aspect ratio, and isn’t far from 16:9 at all. 720p (HD) is 1280x720

The steamdeck has a super awkward resolution that doesn’t fit into any standard aspect ratio. Which creates problems with some games.

Games don’t need to run on the native resolution.

Yeah they don’t. The Deck’s resolution is fine. Do you have any examples of games that don’t run well on the deck?

edit:

Playing a lower resolution on a screen that has a higher one will generally also make the image look nicer

No. Native resolution always looks better

What do you mean by that? You don’t lose gaming performance when you use win10 over win11. Why would you?

There’s Windows 10 LTSC, which gets security updates til 2027. And IoT Enterprise LTSC, which gets security updates until 2032.

“But should you even use those versions?!? They are not meant to be installed on a desktop PC/laptop” - idk, it’s either this or Win11.
